Can't find a job

Idk what else to do. I've gone through temp agencies but the hours conflict with school hours. I can't pass the assessments for these jobs on my own and I'm starting to doubt my abilities. I'm already homeless and in my car with my child and it's getting grim. Idk what else to do. I need a job to see my worth and offer me a position. I'm desperate

What are you looking for currently? I’m following a lot of wfh pages on Facebook and a lot of them are getting back to people in a few days with no assessments. I’ve seen people work from public libraries or apartment clubhouses using their laptops and computers.

Go to the GDOL website & see the jobs they have. They have plenty of jobs & job fair dates on the website. If you need money like BAD apply for EDS OR ABM at the airport as a driver. They hire pretty quick. I just seen someone make a post saying Amazon & Fed ex Is hiring now too.

I am a bus driver and bring my daughter with me. It’s not as hard or intimidating as it seems.

Have you considered a nontraditional job? I can talk to you more about it but I'd need to get to know you before I refer just to see if it would he a good fit

I completely understand I have been looking for a wfh job forever! Been rejected every time

Right now I'm staying afloat with Amazon Flex, Doordash, Ubereats, etc. I've tried Target and many others and I've been rejected even though my background is mostly retail and customer service. I'd like to do wfh as an independent contractor so I can still get to my babygirl. I'll even accept warehouse jobs because I know how to drive a stand up forklift. I just need a YES!

@Victoria she's currently in a GA pre-k program. I just need something that compliments her school hours until I can save to pay a sitter for better jobs with different hours.

Also what does your resume look like? I could help fix it up. Msg me

I think k my resume could use some work. I've let a few people look at it and I've gotten mixed reviews on it. I'll send you a PM, shortly. I'm at the library

There are usually child care assistance, check your county. That was you can have child care while you work. The bus will usually drop the child off at the provider as long as it’s in the school district. That might help with the school schedule

@Amy I'm applying for CAPS to cover that but it's a process. I've been denied 5 times already. Hopefully, I can get some help this time around

I hope so!! Sorry you are going through this!

thank you. I'm not the only one struggling. I wish jobs would actually hire folks when they say they need someone

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Advice

Ok so I had this friend and she would always talk about how it was so embarrassing to post your face on tinder or any kind of dating/friendship platform because it makes you look desperate. This has stuck with me soo much over the years, I always post anonymously. I really want a friend just 1 friend that I can go out n do stuff with and we just click but I refuse to post my face on any friendship platform, also because I might see someone I know and I literally HATE the idea of that. I feel so stuck, because I’m not the type of person to go out a lot I go to work and come home and when I do go out to parks and stuff there’s literally never any moms that try to strike up conversation. I really wanna get on bumble bff to try it out but it makes it to where you have to post your face. PLEASEEE any advice would help. I get bumble bff go through the people and then I delete it within like 5 minutes because I see someone I know.
